Patent EP-1335108-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CRARY STEVEN
IPC: E21B47/00
Filed: 1999-02-04
Abstract: There are many natural pauses during rotary drilling operations where a portion of
the drill string remains stationary. Pauses include drill pipe connections, circulating time,
and fishing operations. These pauses are used to obtain formation evaluation
measurements that take a long time or that benefit from a quiet environment, as opposed
to the naturally noisy drilling environment. Various techniques that are sensitive to the
mud flow, weight-on-bit, or motion of the drill string may be used alone or in
combination to identify the drilling mode and control the data acquisition sequence.

Abstract: In the field of packaging it is desirable to convert sheets of paper into a pad-like
or other relatively low-density dunnage product. Cushioning conversion
machines are used to accomplish such a conversion. The dunnage product is
cut into sections of a desired length. Therefore, there is a need for a safety
device for protecting the hands of an operator of a cushioning conversion
machine during a cutting operation. 
     A safety output chute (300) for a cushioning conversion machine (10)
includes an output chute (310) having an input end and an output end. The
input end includes an opening for receiving a flexible cushioning product
from an outlet of the cushioning conversion machine (10). A plurality of
axially spaced hinged elements (322, 324) substantially prevent ingress
through the chute (310) from the output end towards the input end.

(16).
Patent EP-1403651-A2 (EP)
Inventor: STIRRAT SUSAN
IPC: H01L21/66
Filed: 2003-09-24
Abstract: In a test method for the detection of redundant tests and inefficient tests (RITs) used for testing integrated circuits (ICs), empirical data from an execution of all tests of interest in a test plan, flow or suite of tests is collated (110) without stopping at errors. This empirical data is then used to determine the identity of one or more redundant and/or inefficient tests in the test plan (120, 130). In order to reduce testing time and optimize the test flow, redundant tests may be selectively removed ( 140), and/or inefficient tests may be re-ordered to allow more efficient tests to be executed earlier in the test flow of the ICs (150).

Title: Determination of code transmit power range in downlink power control for cellular systems
Inventor: ZHANG GUODONG
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 2003-10-02
Abstract: A method and apparatus employing algorithms enabling cellular networks to determine the range of code transmit power in downlink, as well as uplink, power control. Two exemplary algorithms provide a determination of an appropriate transmit power range for each code so that when the transmit power of any code approaches an upper limit, the transmit power of the other codes can be adjusted to catch up with the dynamic range. Even though the two exemplary algorithms have functional similarities, in the second algorithm, the frequency of reconfiguration of code transmit power range is much less than the frequency of change of the number of codes. Both algorithms are applicable for use in all modes of transmission in UMTS systems.
